All rights reserved. — I love simple recipes that you can put together with pantry ingredients. But I also love recipes where each family member can customize their serving, and these flatbreads certainly allow you to do that. I’d suggest setting up a pizza bar and letting everyone make their own—which is a nice way to get the night off from cooking, too!"

ingredients

• 2 cups chopped cooked chicken
• 3⁄4 cup prepared barbecue sauce

directions

1. 1. In a medium bowl, toss together the chicken and 1/4 cup of the barbecue sauce.
2. 2. Spread half the remaining barbecue sauce on one of the flatbreads. Top with half the chicken and half each of the Gouda and mozzarella cheeses. Sprinkle with half the red onion. Gently press the cheese and onions onto the chicken with your fingers.
3. 3. Carefully place one flatbread in the air-fryer basket. Set the air fryer to 400°F for 10 minutes, until the bread is browned around the edges and the cheese is bubbling and golden brown. If not, cook for 2 minutes more. Transfer the flatbread to a plate and repeat to cook the second flatbread.
